I can't bear to part with it, even though I wouldn't be seen in an apron these days!<br /><br />Yvonne :)Yvonne @ Fiction Books Reviewshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14821114534056290177noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4904164150534193483.post-78825951777247951272017-03-02T14:23:04.730-08:002017-03-02T14:23:04.730-08:00This comment has been removed by the author.Yvonne @ Fiction Books Reviewshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14821114534056290177noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4904164150534193483.post-90851021216980523312017-02-26T14:05:52.273-08:002017-02-26T14:05:52.273-08:00Aprons?

My first act of defiance as an adult was to sit on the fabric that came with the sofa in my apartment.

Of course, I don't wear them, except if I were using flour, but since I almost never bake, they stay in the drawer. I take them out occasionally, just to reminisce.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03357276849408047946noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4904164150534193483.post-68106645335984196462017-02-25T08:42:34.985-08:002017-02-25T08:42:34.985-08:00My mother never wore aprons, and I don't, eith...My mother never wore aprons, and I don't, either.
